Before you say it, I know what you're thinking: "But Craig, bananas are definitely not allowed on a ketogenic diet!" Don't worry guys, we're using banana flavored extract to impart some flavor into our smoothie - no real bananas needed! This one does thicken up slightly more than the others because of the addition of flax and chia seeds, but I think it gives a great hearty mouthfeel that is perfect for breakfast replacements. I've been on a little bit of a smoothie binge lately, so if you'd ...

This is a smoothie that will bring memories back to you with a cooling and refreshing vibe running through it.

Cinnamon Roll “Oatmeal”
So the last few days I've really been craving oatmeal. I keep seeing oatmeal bars, cookies, porridge and the like on Pinterest and Facebook - and I wanted to join in on the fun...but not have any of the carbs to go along with it. The second I put this in my mouth and started to chew, the texture wasn't exactly the same as oatmeal - but the taste was pretty darn close! The mouth feel is very similar, and really nice while you're chewing. The aftertaste even makes me think back to the days ...

Chicharrones con Huevos
Chicharrones con Huevos roughly translates to "pork rinds with eggs". Though, I thought I'd spice it up a little bit by adding tomato, avocado, jalapenos, and of course cilantro to the mix. While ketoproof coffee is a fantastic way to get fats into your diet, it's not all that nutritionally dense. There's tons of micronutrients missing from it, there's no protein (which in a lot of cases is better for people), and there's barely any work involved. If you're interested to learn more about how ...

I had a huge craving for something that tasted like Fall last night, and these definitely came through. As one of the softest and most moist muffins I've EVER MADE on Keto, these really fit the bill. And today? Nope, not dried out - still super moist and super delicious. If you've ever read the back of a Lay's chips package, you'd see their slogan "you can't just have one". Well, you can definitely apply that motto to these keto muffins! These muffins have such an explosion of flavor! The ...
